Shareholders’ Rights
Attorneys in our Shareholders' Rights Practice group
work to resolve shareholders' rights disputes. In most cases,
ownership of privately-owned businesses are concentrated in a
small group of investors (the majority) that guide the
organization's daily operations. At times, the influence of the
majority owners conflict with the interests of the minority
owners. The minority remains excluded from the benefits of
ownership, while the majority finds itself encumbered by the
minority's dissatisfaction. Consequently, the dispute interrupts
the daily operations of the organization and ultimately poses a
threat to its overall success.
Our
attorneys understand the multifaceted dynamics of shareholders'
rights disputes and employ their experience and expertise to
resolve such cases through mediation, arbitration, and
litigation.
Specifically, we can help:
-
Assess the
degree to which the majority is acting oppressively
-
Identify and
crease means to address and remedy the dispute
-
Counsel the
majority on ways to conduct themselves in a fairer, less
oppressive manner
-
Provide
cost-effective mediation, negotiation, or litigation in an
effort to bring both the majority and minority to an
equitable resolution
